Template:R semi-protected/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:R semi-protected (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This rcat does not protect redirects. It will only categorize redirects that have already been protected by administrators. |
| This template should not be substituted nor used to tag soft redirects. |
Usage[edit]
- This redirect category (rcat) template populates Category:Semi-protected redirects by default.
- When template {{Redirect category shell}} (Rcat shell) is used to add one or more rcats to a redirect, there is no need to include this rcat. Rcat shell detects protection levels automatically, so by default it will add this rcat to a redirect when it is first protected and then remove it from the redirect if and when protection is lifted. See Rcat shell's template documentation for details.
- If used by itself, add this rcat to a redirect as follows:
#REDIRECT [[(target page name)]]
{{R semi-protected}}
- Use this rcat to categorize semi-protected redirects. Adding this rcat and populating the Semi-protected redirects category does not in and of itself protect the redirect. Page protection can only be engaged by administrators.
